comment Was Edward Furlong allowed to watch Terminator 2: Judgement Day when it was released?
@EknathIyer Yes, they could and probably would. While they might be willing to look the other way for the kid who was actually in the movie, the friends still wouldn't have a parent or guardian present.

comment What kind of company is Initech?
@JeffSahol I don't know enough about credit unions to answer, but if that's the case it would seem like a possibility.

There's way too much noise on the Internet about this right now for Google to be any help. :(

comment The credibility of Bourne being shot in the back
@Tshepang I would probably hide under the carpet, weeping. But we are talking about the dictator of a country here, so we shouldn't expect his reaction to be typical. It probably wasn't the first attempt on his life, and it would send a strong message to his enemies if their assassin not only failed, but also wound up dead.

comment Why did Jason Bourne put a laser with his bank account number in his body
@Tshepang If you find someone alive with two bullets in their back, wouldn't you look them over for other wounds?
